With cocoa bitters (and without syrup), this was our 'South of the Border Martinez' which we served from 2009 or so at The Waldorf Astoria New York. (FYI)

Thanks, Frank. Was the South of the Border Martinez your creation? Perhaps a maraschino cherry for garnish in place of twists?

Hi Simon, I recorded an orange twist in my book, though the addition of a brandied cherry as well, certainly couldn't hurt.
Back then, we did not get calls for much tequila. It was an effort to offer and introduce it to our guests in a then novel way. Cheers!
